Learn About This Location

England's second-largest city is also one of its most vibrant. With a state-of-the-art £189 million library, a gleaming shopping mall above the New St Station, beautifully maintained Victorian buildings and new Midland Metro tram line, the city is on-track for its Big City Plan. There are also new parks and high-end residential and commercial buildings; as well as the Mailbox and Bullring shopping malls and the iconic 'bubblewrapped' facade of the Selfridges building.
